Does anyone know when the Scorbitron will be available again? My family got me a gift card to cover the cost of a Scorbitron for Father's Day, and their website still says out-of-stock over a month later.

Max, still waiting on chips. However, let me help you out! If you don’t mind emailing me at [email protected] I’ll get you hooked up!

FYI, all caught up, we've just posted support for all Stern games up to current code.

This includes all earlier titles (Whitestar, SAM, Data East, Sega, Spike 1) and current titles (Spike 2) and weird ones (Whoa, Primus, Pabst).

Support works along side Insider Connected, if you wish to use both.

Willy Wonka LE (2021) scorbitron won't connect. I went into the settings under Scorbit and it just said "authenticating."

There were no changes to wifi or my network. The machine still had internet access--I checked for updates and it confirmed there were none. Internet connection also stated it was connected.
- I tried to delete my machine from my scorbit account and reconnect. It didn't work.
- I tried my other wireless network. and redid step 1.
- I then did a factory reset of my Wonka. Set up wifi. Attempt to setup scorbitron. On the iOS app, it said "Success your scorbitron is connected." But the scorbitron setup guide on Wonka remained on screen. (see attachment for image on screen).
- I went into iOS app and detached scorbitron then deleted machine and tried again. Nothing.

Any ideas? I'm the only owner of the machine. I also tried to set it up the hard way as detailed here: https://support.scorbit.io/scorbitron/activating-your-scorbit-system/activating-scorbit-for-jersey-jack-pinball

JJP removed Scorbit. Even if you didn't update Scorbit won't work with the older code anymore, or is the the hardware version?

stupac pinballizfun Not exactly. It works when people reach out to us directly, as we have to do some manual work to activate them on antiquated servers to stay compatible with the old Scorbit code running on those machines.

Just PM me if you have questions. Don't update your code on your JJP if you enjoy the service. We have hundreds of people currently using them with JJP machines.

Point of clarification: The latest version with Scorbit. I believe that is:

WOZ 7.04
Hobbit 3.12
DialedIn 1.75
Pirates 0.99 beta (Yes, Scorbit works on the last beta prior to February 2023)
Wonka 2.03
Toy Story 1.09
Godfather Beta Only (We saw machines at JJP hitting our servers prior to their announcement, I"m not sure if anyone has this).

Note regarding the latest Android 13 / SDK 33 and Scorbitron Hardware:

Scorbit now asks for permission for Nearby WiFi Devices, a new requirement for IoT WiFi credential setting on Android.

As part of this transition, the framework libraries are still catching up. As a result, during hardware pairing on Android 13 you may have to follow a manual procedure to switch back and forth between your local WiFi and the Scorbitron WiFi to set it's initial WiFi credentials. We expect this to get fixed soon, but in the meantime, if you have Android 13 and run into this issue, this is the procedure:

ONLY for Android 13 and Scorbitron Hardware Pairing:

1. Settings > My Machines > Edit Pencil > Install Scorbitron
2. Proceed with normal installation
3. When prompted, agree to Nearby WiFi Permissions
4. When prompted, agree to connect to Scorbitron
5. When Connecting to Scorbitron times out, before tapping Try Again, switch out of the app to Network/WiFi settings
6. Tap your current WiFi and tap "Disconnect."
7. Switch back to the app, tap "Try Again."
8. Proceed with passing your local WiFi credentials to the app.
9. When the procedure times out, before tapping Try Again, switch out of the app to Network/WiFi settings
10. Tap "Connect" for your local WiFi
11. Switch back to the app, and tap "Try Again."

Scorbit should really be applauded to keep some servers running on old code, and provide a path for JJP owners to keep Scorbit functionality, on top of that free of charge. That's really a testimony to customer service (knowing that JJP users are not even, technically, customers !) and focus on end user experience.

I just enabled back Scorbit on my Hobbit, and oh boy I'm happy.

Can you point me to a guide on how to get this setup on a Stern machine?

Sure thing!
